Information About VT180-N112
The VT180-N112 is part of SICK’s VT180 series of photoelectric proximity sensors developed for accurate and repeatable detection tasks. It operates on an energetic photoelectric principle, detecting objects based on reflected infrared light without the need for a reflector. The sensor features potentiometer-based adjustment, allowing fine tuning of the sensing range to match application requirements. Its robust metal housing, integrated protection circuits, and IP66 enclosure rating make it suitable for continuous operation in demanding industrial environments.
Key Features:
- Photoelectric Proximity Sensor: Enables non-contact object detection using reflected light.
- Energetic Sensing Principle: Detects objects without additional reflectors or receivers.
- Short-Range Detection: Supports sensing distances up to 110 mm.
- Infrared LED Light Source: Provides stable optical performance with long service life.
- Adjustable Sensing Range: Potentiometer adjustment with 270° rotation for precise tuning.
- Cylindrical M18 Housing: Allows easy integration into standard mounting setups.
- Light/Dark Switching Mode: Selectable switching logic for flexible control integration.
- Fast Response Time: Ensures reliable detection in dynamic automation processes.
- Integrated Circuit Protection: Includes reverse-polarity and overload protection.
- Industrial-Grade Construction: Designed for long-term reliability in harsh environments.
The VT180-N112 delivers the reliability and precision required for short-range industrial object detection and proximity sensing applications.
